Never ever listens, never ever cares
Never is the person you think is in there
Never ever grateful, never ever free
Never ticks the boxes from what we can see
You’re asleep when we’re talking to you
We’ve staged a sit-in inside your flat
The problems are too real, they aren’t all in your head
Your man isn’t a phoenix so I treat him like he’s dead
Never ever listens, never ever cares
Never is the person you think is in there
Never ever grateful, never ever free
Never ticks the boxes from what we can see
Magic moments divine are fleeting
Better on paper, the dopamine dude
The dullards on TV are having all the fun
The game show where contestants are slaughtered one by one
Never ever listens, never ever cares
Never is the person you think is in there
Never ever grateful, never ever free
Never ticks the boxes from what we can see
Never ever present, never ever proud
Never says the right thing, at least not out loud
Never ever open, never ever tries
Never find the right time to cut off the ties
You rely on the power of silence
A golden rule, a bargaining tool
Now that we’ve reached the end of seven stone July
Can we move past the indecision you exemplify?
Never ever listens, never ever cares
Never is the person you think is in there
Never ever grateful, never ever free
Never ticks the boxes from what we can see
Never ever present, never ever proud
Never says the right thing, at least not out loud
Never ever open, never ever tries
Never find the right time to cut off the ties
Never ever listens, never ever cares
Never is the person you think is in there
Never ever grateful, never ever free
Never ticks the boxes from what we can see
